Thales is a global technology leader for the Defence & Security and the Aerospace & Transport markets. In 2011, the company generated revenues of 13 billion with 67,000 employees in 56 countries. With its 22,500 engineers and researchers, Thales has a unique capability to design, develop and deploy equipment, systems and services that meet the most complex security requirements. Thales has an exceptional international footprint, with operations around the world working with customers as local partners.

As a recognized expert in critical systems, Thales has a unique leadership position in control systems for transport with a comprehensive offering spanning three market segments: main line railways, urban transport and road networks.

The activities of Thales in railway transportation in France are regrouped within Thales Communications & Security SAS

Main Line Rail
Transport authorities and operators are meeting today's challenges with Thales' intelligent, high-value solutions. Smart, information-driven rail signalling technology significantly increases capacity, safety and security. Increasingly interactive solutions build greater return on investment from start to finish benefiting operators, passengers and freight delivery.

Urban Transport
With one in two of the world's population living in cities, the need for non-stop urban and inter-city transport has never been greater. Integration and interoperability at every level of the transport system are key to smooth, continuous metro operations and enhanced safety and security. Thanks to Thales's integrated, secured and safe solutions, all critical data can be centralised on one system and accessed through a single user interface.
